I thought I would give this a try... It's not as great as others, but seems pretty good. I know I love this thing. It's my first Mac and I have had it for around five day.

Might be a burden for you though I was asking because I'm looking for a used MacPro(urge), but can't really tell the difference between the different models available for sale, and the test results that I see on here and other lists...that's when it hit me that this info could be useful to know for others too. I'm not looking for the best, but also not the worst. A MacPro with a score around ~10k.

Well - it'd be some legwork for me - which I can't get to for the next couple of weeks - I'm in the process of moving. I'm sure all the info can be extracted using mactracker.

Wow, my current MacBook only scores 2550. This however is really encouraging for me as six years after it left the factory it can still barely do what I want/need it to do so the new Pro I'm getting this summer which should be somewhere around the 8.5K range will do everything I need for quite a while

I wouldn't need to a score test to know how my Mac Mini PPC G4 stacks up to your Macs :p It's pretty ancient, runs decent and it gets it's physical usage! I do abuse it (with having loads of apps running at one time, Photoshop, Lightroom, Office 08 and Itunes) It does chug but by today's standards it's a dope compared to what you guys have. But I love it. Until it breaks down from excessive usages - I won't upgrade just yet. :p

I hate this PC. My G5 ate it for breakfast as far as benchmarks go.

I received a 3390. I think that's pretty decent, right?

Can't fault you there, if it ain't broke then don't try to fix it, if what you have does what you want and you're happy with it then there's no point in spending a wad of money upgrading.

I upgraded from 4 to 8 gigs of ram today, the geekbench points went up 184 over all. I am still adjusting to the Mac world, but it feels much quicker. I shouldn't have to update anything on this machine for quite some time now. Maybe an SSD, but I blew my wad purchasing this thing...I am EXTREMELY happy with my first Mac though....

Pretty good. I'm certainly happy with it.

This is from my mid 2011 iMac.

Here's my "mac", not that great but it is almost 4 years old.

Here's what my refurbed iMac i5 2.5GHz (Mid 2011 model) is capable of

Out of curiosity what would an acceptable score be?
